Chapter 652 The First Mass Casualty

As the leader of the regiment, it was the first time he personally led everyone to attack Wei's wharf, out of caution and to see the little devil's combat effectiveness.

But like the second attack on Wei’s Wharf, Zhang Qingshan doesn’t need to go into battle with bare arms, he just needs to command—at least it must be a battle at the regiment level, so that the regiment leader can charge the first The first line, otherwise, it would be wrong to take the head of the group as the head of the group. (In film and television works or novels, the regiment leader is always on the front line, which is required by the storyline. In reality, such a situation is basically impossible in small-scale battles.)

For Zhang Qingshan, the most difficult thing now is to wait... I don't know if the second battalion can successfully take down the devil's warehouse at Wei's wharf where more than 100 little devils are stationed?How about their casualties?I don't know if the ghosts in the county have gone to support...

A series of questions made Zhang Qingshan irritable, but because the news was delivered too slowly, it made him suffer even more.For this reason, from yesterday morning to now, a full 22 hours have passed, Zhang Qingshan insisted on not leaving the regiment headquarters, and sleeping with everyone is just a matter of squeezing.In order to get the results of the Second Battalion as soon as possible, even those who passed the news between the two were from the communication soldiers, and those who were good at mountain running were carefully selected, so that every second counts, so that they can get the news as soon as possible (from Qinglong Mountain where the assault regiment is stationed to The Weijia Wharf is about fifty miles away, and most of them are small roads, so it is bound to be inconvenient to transmit news, and the time will be several hours later)... Ordinarily, such a small battle, with Zhang Qingshan's arrogance and the confidence of his opponents, is fundamentally inconvenient. There is no need to pay so much attention to it, but the fundamental reason why he cares so much is that this is the first time that the assault group has really confronted the little devil. The fighting power of the devil directly determines how the assault group will deal with the devil in the future. A thorough investigation of the devil's abilities in all aspects.

After eating two roasted sweet potatoes for breakfast, Zhang Qingshan took a long bench to the entrance of the regiment command department and sat down. He crossed his legs and smoked. In the fierce battle at the Weijia Wharf, there was only one big question in my mind: According to the battle deployment, the Second Battalion should have launched an attack on the Weijia Wharf at ten o'clock last night, but why hasn't the regiment headquarters sent a message yet?

Zhang Qingshan never considered that the Second Battalion would fail: In terms of weapons, the artillery company has thirteen small steel cannons. , can also blow up that bullshit, and the devil's warehouse fortress that has not yet been completed; in terms of number of people, the second battalion itself has about 700 people. After more than half a month, the number of troops has doubled to nearly 120, which has already exceeded the formal establishment of a battalion, and it is the battalion with the largest number of people among the four battalions.Although there are mostly new recruits, there are also many veterans, and the old will lead the new, so I believe the combat effectiveness will not be too bad.Moreover, even if it is filled by people, more than 700 little devils can be buried alive—more than 100 against more than 2000. When the equivalent reaches a certain level, it will cause a qualitative change; But at this time, I believe they will choose to be neutral, not to mention that Boss Peng sent people to help secretly; in terms of weather, the little devil concentrated the main force on the front line of Taiyuan, and only sent a small amount of troops to Sanqiao County and its surrounding areas. To keep the supply flowing, there are only a few hundred people, but the assault regiment has [-] people——People Wang Yang is not talking about it, it will be reflected here...

In this way, the Second Battalion has an absolute advantage whether it is the right time and place or the harmony of people. It is said that not only should they be able to successfully take down the Weijia Wharf, but it must have been taken down at this time—not only It was Zhang Qingshan, and many members of the assault regiment believed that in such a situation where they had all the advantages, if the Second Battalion could not wipe out these more than 120 little devils, it would only be regarded as a failure of the Second Battalion.It can also be seen from this that the arrogance deep in the hearts of everyone in the assault group, under the leadership of Zhang Qingshan, the leader, has infected the bones of every soldier.

But why haven't they sent the battle report to the regiment headquarters yet?You know, as a rule, when the fight starts, someone will be sent to inform the regiment headquarters, after the fight starts, it will be notified according to the situation, and the results will be reported after the fight is over.But the Second Battalion didn't do this this time, which made people doubt whether the Second Battalion's attack on Wei's Wharf was successful, or even a bad guess.

Although Zhang Qingshan looked peaceful, the pile of cigarette butts under his feet betrayed his mood.On the other hand, Xiang Tao, who was standing against the wall behind him, already had a layer of sweet potato skin under his feet, but still glanced suspiciously at Zhang Qingshan from time to time, wondering why Zhang Qingshan was so upset?

When Zhang Qingshan finished smoking another cigarette and was about to take out another cigarette, Zhou Baoyu trotted over with the support of a communication soldier.

Zhang Qingshan stood up excitedly and greeted him.

Grabbing the soldier's shoulders, he asked anxiously, "How is it going? How is the second battalion doing?"

"Report...report to the head of the group..."

Seeing that the other party was out of breath and couldn't even finish his sentence, Zhang Qingshan quickly glanced at Xiang Tao who was beside him, and seeing that Xiang Tao turned around clearly and ran into the headquarters, Zhang Qingshan turned around to stop the order Bing: "No hurry, no hurry! Go to the headquarters to take a rest first, drink some water to moisten your throat..."

Helped the messenger into the headquarters, and personally handed him water and handkerchiefs...

After waiting for the orderly soldier's complexion to gradually lose its rosiness and calm down, Zhang Qingshan asked, "Tell me, how is the fight in the Second Battalion going?"

"Report……"

"No need to do this, sit down and talk, sit down and talk."

"Reporting to the head of the regiment, although our second battalion took down the devil's warehouse fortress, the loss this time was really miserable. 47 comrades were sacrificed and nearly 50 people were injured..."

"what?"

Although Zhang Qingshan couldn't help interrupting the messenger's words, this exclamation was the common voice of everyone present: Since the establishment of the assault group, when has there been such a big loss?Besides, this is just a battle between a battalion-level unit and a company-level unit (they didn't regard the second devil as an opponent at all, so naturally they don't count, but they don't want to think about it. Hundreds of second devils are fighting in the front, but the devils in the back are the opponents. Supervising the battle team, do the two devils dare not go all out?), so many people were killed or injured.

The most important and most serious thing is: the assault regiment took advantage of the right time, place and people, and as a result, nearly a hundred people were killed or injured.Zhang Qingshan believes that Li Honghui's command ability, then, this shows the strength of the little devil's fighting power...

Of course, Zhang Qingshan had a rough guess in his mind: such a large casualty was not only due to the little devil's strong combat effectiveness, but more importantly, it was probably the problem of the recruits from the second battalion.

"How about the devil's casualties?"

Zhang Qingshan endured the urge to jump violently, before he had time to ask, he heard Tian Guozhong ask in a deep voice.He glanced at Tian Guozhong with some doubts, wondering why he asked such a question at this time, but after thinking about it, he felt a little admiration for Tian Guozhong: our casualties are so large, and the casualties of the devils can be the most direct. Reflect the current gap between the two sides.

"When I came, the battle had just ended. According to preliminary statistics, 33 devils were killed, 57 second devils were killed, and 140 and four second devils were captured..." He bowed his head in shame and paused After a while, he said: "There are no devils captured."

"what?"

This time, it was Tian Guozhong who burst out with grief and indignation.It's no wonder that he was sad and angry: his side had so many casualties, but the devils' side was much smaller. You know, this is 700 people dealing with more than 100 devils and two hundred and two devils. There are many more, how can the people present accept this?And this also nakedly reflects the gap between the assault group and the little devils.

Zhang Qingshan was surprised, but at least he held back.

After Tian Guozhong burst into grief and anger, he immediately held back the shock in his heart, and asked angrily while sitting down: "You said just now that you only killed 33 devils, and the battle is over, so what about the remaining little devils? Did they all grow wings and fly away?"

Tian Guozhong was also really pissed off, and his tone of speech was full of sarcasm, which was not commensurate with his usual talkative personality and the position of chief of staff of the regiment.

"They all ran away."

"How did Li Honghui become the battalion commander? Not only did he have so many casualties, but he let nearly a hundred devils escape. I have to..." Tian Guozhong slapped the table angrily, but his words were the common doubts in everyone's hearts. .

"Old Tian, ​​Lao Tian, ​​calm down and listen to the battle report first." Zhang Qingshan comforted Tian Guozhong, and said kindly to the communications soldier, "Please tell me what happened in detail."

Facts proved Zhang Qingshan's conjecture, as expected, there was no problem in command and other aspects, the biggest problem still lay in the recruits.

Li Honghui received the combat order around five o'clock in the afternoon. Immediately, the battalion immediately discussed the combat plan according to the regiment headquarters. Make some adjustments.

Immediately, the whole Second Battalion was dispatched and found their respective preparation locations by night.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the second battalion launched an attack on time: according to the battle plan, the first company and the second company were the main force, and rushed into the town from the west of Wei's wharf, using the main street as the passage.After arriving at the predetermined location, the first company attacked the devil warehouse fortress to the left.Erlian went straight to the town hall.

Sanlian attacked from the south of Wei's Wharf, and with the secret help of the fishermen, took a boat from the south of the Devil's Warehouse Fortress.In addition, a company attacked from the left side of the devil's warehouse fortress, forming a pincer attack.

The fourth company is the main force of the second devil in the town hall of the team, attacking from the north of the town hall... After the second company cooperated with the fourth company to take down the town hall, it immediately turned its guns and launched an attack on the east side of the devil's warehouse fortress.

Wulian is responsible for the fish that slipped through the net in the whole town to prevent people from taking advantage of troubled waters.

The sixth company is a reserve force, and is also responsible for the auxiliary defense artillery company.

This kind of combat plan is very perfect. It can be said that all aspects have been considered, and the advantage of the large number of people has been fully utilized.However, this is just talk on paper. After the real battle begins, the biggest problem of the second battalion or the entire assault regiment is also an unavoidable problem, and it will be exposed to everyone at once...
